Dusk Souls

So thats why the race is to 200 Mill in all skills....to be honest I thought it was just an arbitrary number :oops:

All the creatures in the polypore dungeon are all but immune to melee and magic, so yes mage them.

I actually have one questions for you Spimucular, are you a member? Your skill screenshot shows you have levels in herblore, thieving, agility, fletching and thieving; but your display on the forum says you are free to play, which confuses me :-?. So which one is it? I will try to follow the blog because, so once again welcome and good luck.

While I am pretty sure pure accounts are really fun (I have plans to start a Zerker account in the near future), I don't think that your first account, when you are just starting to learn the ropes of the game is a good idea.

I started playing around 2003-2004, I stopped playing by 2006 and sporadically played till October 2011 more or less, if I had kept playing all those years I am sure I would be at least maxed combat and pretty near maxing the account,so that is my biggest regret (As a side note, the account I am currently using is about 5 months old and I have already surpassed my first account, both in total levels and Combat level :wall: )

I am not sure how much I am going to get into farming, to be honest the idea of the skill doesn't really appeal to me; but it is a decent to good money maker at higher levels...

The task set from Lumbridge is incredibly useful to start knowing the game, plus it gives some monetary rewards that help A LOT in the beginning. Good Luck and welcome to both Runescape and the forums!!

Considering I am only 42 Thieving, what would be best in general to get to level 53? AFAIK the XP rates is the same for MF and G (46.5 per successful pick pocket); but I am not sure... On one hand the seeds will add up and when I start to farm it might be worthwhile; but on the other hand some extra GP are never a bad option. Or is there anything else I can do? Would Pyramid Plunder be better XP per hour?

If you have good farming levels, herb are quite a nice extra income, rannar, snapdragon and torstol are the most profitable AFAIK.

:unsure: would it be that bad with range 51?

I can't use the arrows because I am going to be ranging the aviansies, so I need that spot for my bolts, and I need five more Thieving levels to do do Temple of Ikov... though maybe grinding a bit is not a bad idea..., thanks for the idea for the granite mace, according to the wiki it sits just where I can buy one.

I am planning to go visit the Aviansies in the GWD after I finish Eadgars Ruse quest, to train ranged and make some money; but my first trip to tie the rope ended in death because I forgot that I needed protection from all factions when entering I am have an unholy symbol for Zammy and the Blessed ring for Sara; but I don't have anything for Armadyl or Bandos, hence the question in the title. Right now I have under 50K in my bank and I don' have anything I could sell to make money.

The general advice is to level Dungeoneering to 60-ish by using outside XP sources (lamps, penguins, troll Invansion) as the low level is really slo XP. On the other hand you could solo small c6 as I did, I got to level 40 in around a month or so and I am not the most efficient nor the best dungeoneer.

AFAIK Bandits in the Bandit Camps and Armored Zombies (after Defender of Varrock) are the best option for both, zombie monkeys under the Ape Atoll temple are also nice XP

No, I am sure many low level players (like me) don't care about this update. Why should I be mad at something that doesn't even affect me? By the time I will be able to use effigies either they will return to normal or a reduced; but not limited rate or there will be other training methods, IIRC Jagexsaid they were working on a RC training method that didn't need essence or altars. This update doesn't really do anything for me.

Which is better to train? Right now I don't have a dragon defender; but I think with the XP reward of Monkey Madness I can get 60 Def.

....I am just one task from getting my cape and it is really annoying, stupid Kittens who take too long to grow into cats...

Bought one for about 130K :thumbsup: , now I am going to try it after I get my Ardougne Cape, figured out it will be better than an obby cape.

The Rengen bracelet is the onyx one right?

I don't have the Ardy cape yet, and you mean recharging Ppoints by teleporting to the Ardougne Monastery pray then teleport to Varrock and return to the CT dragons? There are bots (or at least they appear to be bots) in the CT too, I can outhit the CBL 70's even when they are using a whip and I'm using a brackish blade; but there are some higher levels which I cannot out-hit. As for CT Pk'ers you mean guys who camp near the rifts? Due my Time zone (GMT -6) I usually find little to no-pker's in most worlds, so they aren't a main concern. And on the other hand, the green drags in the chaos tunnels are mixed in with baby black dragons which aren't worth your time to kill. And on the other hand, the green drags in the chaos tunnels are mixed in with baby black dragons which aren't worth your time to kill. I'd rather have baby blacks than bots kill stealing. I hate the baby black dragons....>_< how come they are higher CBL than the Green Adult Dragons.

130K for about 40 minutes of work, not bad I guess.

Actually this trip is to start raising money to get that prayer, according to the tip.it calculator I need roughly 1k dragonbones (in an glided altar) to get prayer 60 for chivalry and I am still need 8 more defence levels to start King's Ransom.

That is more or less what I used to carry in another account and I tend to think better safe than sorry; but you are right I didn't think on inventory space.

I need a bit of cash and smithing cannonballs is becoming boring so I think visiting the green dragons might not be a bad idea to break the monotony and perhaps getting a bit of cash. My stats are in my sig and I was planing on going with a brackish blade anti-fire shield, glory, monks robe (top and bottom), berserker helm, RoW, rune boots, blue spiky vambraces ( I don't have a better item for the hand slots) and obsidian cape with an inventory consisting of a super set, an anti-fire potion and 10 or so Ppots with some monkfish for emergencies. So chaos tunnels or wildy?

I can help somewhat with the fungal magi as I just had a task of them =p, they are in the polypore dungeon north-east of the mage training arena (which itself is north of Al-kharid). They are cbl 120 but pretty safe if you have protect from magic (prayer 37 I think). In the Polypore dungeon you must use magic, as all creatures there are resistant to melee and ranged, I uses fire blast and use around 2k Death runes + air and mystic fire battlestaff in full mystic minus the hat as I used a hexcrest. They drop noted potato cactus which sells for around 2.5 k in the G.E so you might break even with the runes. I didn't because I used a lot of ppots which are quite expensive right now.
